Xara Designer compatible plug-ins

The great Live Effects tool in Designer Pro allows Photoshop and Xara plug-in effects to be applied to both photos and vector graphics, opening up a huge range of special graphical effects. What's more if these are modern 'scriptable' plug-ins, then you can still edit the vector shape (or text) and the effects are automatically updated. We have included all of the plug-ins shown below with Designer Pro X10/X11.

Magic Bullet PhotoLooks 2.0

PhotoLooks 2 is a powerful and flexible plug-in (previously sold by Red Giant for $199!) that is bundled with all copies of Photo & Graphic Designer 10/11 and Designer Pro X10 - and it could change the way you approach color in photography!

PhotoLooks includes over 100 presets inspired by real commercial projects, from wedding vignettes to popular cinematic looks. But you can dive deeper by exploring the PhotoLooks tools and their powerful way of manipulating color and light to create your own custom effects. So if you want to capture and intensify the mood of your photo, or add a popular film look from soft lighting to Hollywood drama - then PhotoLooks is the tool you need!
